I would set up the 8 users into their own usergroup (e.g. payroll) under the administration tools in w2k. Printer would depend on if you require colour or just black and white together with how much use or work it will be doing...
Colour:
light workload = injet
heavy workload = quality injet or colour laser ($$$$)
B&W
light workload = inject
heavy workload = b&w laser (cheap as chips)
Make sure the printer is 10/100 LAN network capable, this way it easy to set restriction, time access and priorities to the printer. Even auto shutdown can be programmed with some printers...
Printer workload and colour prefrence = ????
